Raffia fabric - Shoowa-Kuba - DR Congo (No reserve price)

Raffia Shoowa cloth – Kuba – DR Congo This raffia fabric is attributed to the textile tradition of the Kuba people in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Shoowa textiles are distinguished by the complexity of their geometric patterns, the richness of their textures, and the precision of their artisanal workmanship. Made from raffia fibers, this fabric testifies to the Kuba's textile know-how and the importance of graphic compositions in their artistic heritage. With its geometric rhythm and natural texture, this textile holds particular interest for collectors of African art and lovers of natural fibers. It also fits well into a specialized collection or a contemporary interior, where its strong graphic design creates a dialogue between cultural heritage and contemporary aesthetics.
